My Sunday
Every sunday is basically the same for Caryn and I, the usual routine for us will be breakfast, couch potatoes, lunch, movies/couch potatoes again, dinner and then triple couch potatoes, and good night.
However last Sunday has been a little bit different. I got a small gathering with 3 close friends of mine. Since my wedding, I have almost forgotten how long haven't I spoken with my friends for more than 30 minutes. So, we all met up in WongKok Char Chan Teng at Brem Mall. Anyway there is nothing much about this mall, it is so called the 1st digital mall in Kepong, however it is really nothing fancy about this mall, and I guess I hardly spend my time here if not for this gathering. Though the mall isn't interesting, the food is quite delicious, and the best part of it, it is free, thanks to Bryan who treated us the lunch.
We then stayed in the restaurant, and start chatting. We spent two hours plus in the restaurant chatting all sort of things happen surroudning us, which was quite fun actually. (I hope Caryn will understand that, because I am sure Caryn and I are not into such conversation, politics, econ, properties and etc.)
After we finished up with our gathering, I then realized they have interest to visit 1 of the show unit around Kepong area. So Caryn and I decided to tag along, and it was another wonderful experience, because most show unit is purposely designed to attract buyer, and we likes to see how people decorate and design the house. The show unit is a 3 storey linked house (Corner lot). It is well designed, and we all love the interior.
We chat with the property agent, and realize all units have been booked, except for bumi lots, nevertheless, there are already dozen of names registered to q-up for the bumi lots. It seems like no matter how bad is the economy, there are still a lot of people can afford to spent, and invest. These houses are not cheap, it costs 500k and above. Furthermore, the next phase will be even expensive, they plan to sell it at 700k, and the corner lot will be around 1mil.
We then call it a day after visiting the show unit, and back home to continue with our usual night routine.Tuesday, November 18, 2008
提心吊胆
不过,前几天,情况变了,原来最切身的问题当然就是治安问题。上星期五回到家中,接了友人一通电话,被告知我的公寓有两个单位入贼了。当时,我都不知该庆幸或担忧好,因为被入贼的单位分别是B-16-7及B-19-7,而我的单位是B-18-7。
所以这几天,都在烦该如何加强单位保安,以免成为贼人的下一个目标,也蛮气恼,觉得公寓的保安实在差,好说,这公寓收取的费用也不便宜,但是设备差强人意之余,现在又有爆窃的问题,实在令人提心吊胆。
我想还是多买几个锁头回来上锁,自求多福的好。

危机
所谈的都围绕着事业,前途,远景等话题。发现老板对我颇有微言,觉得我对公司的贡献比以前少了很多。
记得在刚刚出来打拼的时候,真的很有火,求知欲超强,什么都想懂,什么都想学,但是到了这一刻,竟然停下了脚步,每天回到公司,除了分配任务给下属,看看报告,写写电邮,与顾客开会以外,都没再进修了,对公司的新产品都不再感兴趣,对技术,学术上的学习也没想过加深了解,现在回想起来,真的有点问题,不对,该是有很大的问题才真!
虽然接近2009还有一些日子,我已迫不期待的为自己设下了一些计划,希望在事业上有一些改进,要不然未到中年危机,已有事业危机了。

退休,难吗?
为了兴趣而干活呢?这我不太清楚,至少,在我的生活圈子里,大部分人都是前者。
那么到底要在怎样的情形下才能退下来,享清福呢?该是有一大笔储蓄来花,不再有任何的经济负担的时候吧?
但是,人心难测,当外人觉得你已具备退休的条件了,但你并不是这么想,你可能还背负着更多,你觉得你还能赚更多的钱,拥有更响的名气,又觉得一辈子努力,白手兴家的事业,没人承继,非常不甘心。
其实,有必要吗?你应该惜福,应该学懂放手,珍惜身边拥有的一切。盲目的追求只会让你失去更多,赔了健康,赔了时间,赔了家庭。
退休,并不难,放下才难。

卡拉不再ok
这才发现,婚前,唱k都会是我与友人的假期消遣活动之一;婚后,可能身份的变化,朋友们有任何活动都不再通知我了。偶尔在朋友的博客里,知道朋友们的聚会,活动,都觉得与我无关了。可能,朋友间的感情建立的不够深吧,所以才会导致这样的局面。
往后,除了一些重大的日子外,我想都鲜少有机会与这些朋友见面了,唯有借此向你们说声:“朋友,你还好吗?愿安康”

美国总统大选
无论在经济,文化,娱乐,科技等方面,美国都对世界各国都有蛮大影响,这一次的总统大选也不例外。在未来四 年内,美国新总统的政纲都不多不少会对各国造成一定的影响。所以说没有任何关系也不那么正确。
那么,既然我有些八卦,有些好奇,那么,我对这两位候选人可有多少认识?很惭愧,认识不多,大致上,都是从报章,电台得知他们的一些些资料与消息。若是我,会支持那一位?哈哈,既然认识不多,也没有什么资格选吧,但我想我是对创造历史性时刻有多一些兴趣,但愿希望美国子民没我这样无聊。

古典音乐
不过最近因为某些因素,竟然听起古典音乐来。而这一些经过从新编曲的音乐,与一般的古典音乐有所不同,但感觉还蛮好的,轻快多了,所用的乐器也相当简单,不像交响乐队般,那么的澎湃,激扬。
开始对古典音乐有了一些不同的见解;原来,古典音乐并不沉闷,也不枯燥,相反,古典音乐的旋律更优美,更有变化,更能冲击情感。
往后的日子,该有多一项嗜好了,空闲时该会多了解一下古典音乐,看看我会对那位伟大的作曲家的作品有兴趣,再拿出来分享,分享。

一分
失之毫厘,谬以千里,这道理老早就晓得了,却没有太大的感触,直到爱上了这项运动,才真正地了解到其中的奥妙。
每一分站的比拼,都必须全力以赴,每一分站的积分,都必须尽力争取,其余的,就靠那一点点的运气吧。
我想成功也该是这样的,若没有充分的准备,不尽心尽力的去尝试,就算机会给了你,也未必能有所表现。
